Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a peptide hormone critically involved in the regulation
of key life-history traits such as growth and reproduction. Its structure and function are well …

The endocrine system plays an integral role in the regulation of key life‐history traits. Insulin‐
like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1) is a hormone that promotes growth and reproduction, and it has …

The insulin/insulin-like signaling pathway (IIS) has been shown to mediate life history trade-
offs in mammalian model organisms, but the function of this pathway in wild and non …

The insulin and insulin-like signaling (IIS) molecular network regulates cellular growth and
division, and influences organismal metabolism, growth and development, reproduction …

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a member of the vertebrate insulin/insulin-like growth
factor/relaxin gene family necessary for growth, reproduction, and survival at both the …

Nutrition and energy balance are important regulators of growth and the growth
hormone/insulin-like growth factor (GH/IGF) axis. However, our understanding of these …

Previous research has demonstrated that testosterone (T) can inhibit growth in female-larger
species and stimulate growth in male-larger species, but the underlying mechanisms of this …

Broad variation in intra-and interspecific life-history traits is largely shaped by resource
limitation and the ensuing allocation trade-offs that animals are forced to make. Insulin-like …
